--- Comment #1 from Luke Kenneth Casson Leighton <lkcl at lkcl.net> ---
this is a non-bug, jacob, because the SV fir-loop sends individual instructions
to the DMs, as if that forloop (loop2) had been macro-unrolled as scalar
instructions.

those scalar instructions are *going* to have the correct read and write
hazards established (by the DMs)... *just as they would if they were a sequence
of scalar instructions*.

consequently as this behaviour of SV is well-defined and not subject to change,
this us a non-bug.  we don't have a nonbug category, closest is "invalid".
